If you’re having trouble saying no to the bounty of fat and sugar, give yourself a break: your willpower may be no【S1】______for brain pathways that make overeating- much like drug-taking- feel so good.
In one study by researchers at the University of Pennsylvania, mice that were fed a high-fat diet during the first 20 weeks of life and had become【S2】______showed significant and lasting changes in brain areas【S3】______in reward—making the brain less responsive to the same fatty foods.

"Drug addiction is really【S6】______some of these pathways that evolved to promote food【S7】______for survival reasons," Ralph DiLeone, associate professor of psychiatry at Yale University.

答案
O
解析
动词辨析题。空格处应填入动词的现在分词形式作句子的表语。在备选的动词中,有hijacking和kidnapping可选,hijacking和kidnapping都有“劫持”的意思,但是只有hijacking有“控制”的意思,由句意可知毒瘾会影响大脑的某些部位,因此hijacking符合句意。
